Captain Smart invoked curses on any persons who intended to capitalize on the novel Coronavirus to enrich themselves.
"Today, I want to tell you something. I've been asked to hold my bomb on this issue, but there's only one thing I want to tell you. Never try to enrich yourselves with the coronavirus pandemic. Why is the minister lying to Ghanaians and the artistes also denying receiving the money? God will punish you, and your punishment won't be mild, you'll suffer extremely," he fumed.
However, Ursula Owusu in reaction to the presenter stated that the government did not pay a pesewa to anyone over the COVID-19 Tracker App.
